Does anyone know anything about these? Where they came from and how many of these were made? I am fixing this one up that I just purchased and was just wondering since I have never seen one before!

My understanding was that the Chevrolet dealers got a few of them as promotional items?

I am also finding that this would be a Dale Earnhardt sr edition paint scheme from the Opening IROC series race on Feb 13 1987 He drove the number 12 car.

Re: Camaro Go Kart

Thats cool! Looks like there were two versions, the IROC racing and the stock version. This was on e-bay a while back. https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/hist...8-go-kart.html

Re: Camaro Go Kart

I saw one when I was a kid way back in the late 80s/early 90s. Probably right around 1990. I wanted it SOOO bad lol.

Re: Camaro Go Kart

I picked this up the other day and I'm wondering if anyone in here has one, had one or knows anything such as where to get replacement stickers. It needs some body work and paint. Thinking about either getting the graphics painted on or having custom stickers made to match.
